Eat the rainbow! Who says eating healthy should be boring? This salad is so fresh and flavourful, it has different textures bursting with fresh herbs goodness! Should I share the recipe?

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

Be careful about making blanket statements about what does and does not get published in academia. The majority of research, at least in the sciences, makes plenty of sense, and would likely not get published if it did not. Demonizing academia broadly does not serve our cause.
The majority of research in the biomedical sciences (and probably other, but my experience is of the biomedical) only gets funding if its expected outcome supports, or at most only mildly modifies, understandings based on the prevailing paradigms. Disruptive research, that which truly advances knowledge, hardly ever gets either funded or published.
The pressure at every point of an academic career - from passing exams, to getting approval for a research degree proposal, applying for a research g…
I will respond to this at length later, but at the very least it seems to me that challenging prevailing scientific paradigms and getting captured by illiberal ideologies, are not the same thing.
